I got this absolute gem from someone I know who used to operate a computer store in the 80s and 90s and had this sitting in storage for years, and I've decided to sell it since to help for college. All of my research has led me to the conclusion that this is an EXTREMELY rare bag from a USA batch before manufacturing was switched to China. This is an authentic, well preserved Apple computer bag designed for the classic 1984 Macintosh 128k.

It shows no signs of use, as it was probably an item a customer had returned to a local computer store in the mid 80s, or an open box item that was never purchased. It is in the original box and still has the hanging red Macintosh tag. The only minuscule sign of wear is a very small spot on the side which can be seen in the photos, and could likely be cleaned.

Additionally, this is a very early model which can be identified by its C&C zipper and the in-tact “Made in USA #1” tag on the inside, making this an extremely rare model on its own.

Combined with the fantastic condition of the bag and its original packaging, this would be a fantastic museum-worthy addition to an enthusiasts collection of early Apple products.

Looking to get $2280 (can negotiate) and able to ship.

Located in WA state, near Seattle, hmu let's make a deal. will not ship.

**Okay I forgot the images from before....big whoops.**

Hello all,

I'm sure this is a rarer one to get posted but I've learned that fixing stuff is more fun than just letting stuff sitting around collecting dust, and i got some project cars to buy so I'm selling off a good bit of my collection, starting with my Lisa.

Both the Lisa PSU and Profile PSU have been recapped, at least, most of them. Not including some of the larger caps, but all of the rifas of course.

Its a 2/5, at least the main tray and motherboards are as far as i can tell, has the H/A8 boot ROM, and the parallel slot on the rear. I mention this because the serial number on the chassis corresponds to a 2/10, but im not sure at what point in its life that happened, or if it was like that from the factory, who knows.

It comes with all of the original documentation as far as i am aware, and the floppy disks. Most of them do not work at this point unfortunately. It also comes with keyboard, mouse (which is a bit more yellow then the rest), 5mb Profile drive, and Lisa GALSCSI made by alexthecat123 on github, aswell as the boards and most of the chips to make two 2MB ram cards, by warmech on github.

The only issue of note that i am aware of, is, it boots without pressing the power switch, and doesnt really fully turn off without unplugging.

Attached are a couple choice photos for your viewing pleasure, there is a massive amount of photos of everything, from most angles, in decent lighting, just pm if you're interested in the Lisa and I can send it to ya.

Its really, really hard to find good numbers for what a Lisa should go for in a situation like this, from a collector to another collector, instead of random find on eBay to praying you didnt just spend 3k on a complete basket case of a computer, as well as something as compelete as this...really its a ask what you want thing. That being said, I would like to throw out a starting offer of 6k OB0

I am, however, quite flexible on this, work with me ya know, ill entertain all reasonable offers.

I will answer any and all questions, just hit me up, shoot me a dm if youd like, either way.

I am in Washington state, i will drive it to you within 500ish miles, espesically if we can make a deal on the upper end.

unfortunately I will NOT ship.

thx!

Located near Huntsville, no shipping, can take cash and PayPal. Willing to trade for SEGA hardware, software, and peripherals. Everything is in good working order. Mouse and keyboard included; boot media not included (hard drive pictured is for display purposes only). Original flyback failed and was replaced. Original connectors between flyback and analog board were worn out and so were also replaced. Two RIFA capacitors were replaced with new ones; the third I did not have in stock and so I replaced with a ceramic equivalent from a donor board. Open to trading for SEGA hardware, software, and peripherals. All plastics were retro-brited; not perfect but pretty good. It’s nice, bright, and (off-)white. Original feet replaced with “prototype style” feet from joes computer museum.

This is a complete kit that I have had since it was new, it includes the manuals and the VHS tapes.
